Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Brownie! Brownie is an adorable little guy rescued from a hoarder situation. He is somewhat timid and needs a home who will provide some TLC. In the right home though we know he will thrive and be an amazingly loving companion. Currently his foster mom says he is very cuddly and loves attention but also is an independent guy who does not mind napping all day (he has no issues being left home for a normal work day). He is about 2 years old and around 12-14lbs. He is good with other dogs, is pee pad trained and is crate trained. Would do best in a home with another small doggie and would probably be fine with a dog savvy cat and a dog savvy/patient child.

**Please note that our dogs may be located in foster homes around NJ and the NYC area. It would be a great help to us if you can pick up your dog from transport, which is centrally located from Northern NJ and NYC, or foster home.**
**PLEASE INCLUDE YOUR PHONE NUMBER IN YOUR INQUIRY** We put a lot of time and energy into processing our adoptions to find our babies the best fit home for them. Please do not submit an inquiry if you are not serious about adopting. We are so excited to work with you to find you a new forever friend, and appreciate you working with us. For immediate consideration, please attach your application to the initial inquiry to help us expedite the process.
Our adoption fee is $475. This includes their spay/neuter surgery, full (age appropriate) vaccinations, microchip insertion and registration, deworming, heartworm testing and prevention, flea and tick prevention and travel expenses.
All of our dogs are rescued from local shelters and the general public. Each dog is then placed in a foster home where it is kept for a minimum of 2 weeks for quarantine, to ensure if the dog gets sick it can receive proper treatment. After the 2 week quarantine time they are spayed/neutered and fully vetted. They are then placed on the website. We have foster homes in the NJ/NY area waiting to receive their fosters. Once an animal has received an application or there's an adopter interested in it, we make arrangements with the waiting foster to pick the animal up from the airport to then meet with the potential adopter. Thank you in advance for your patience with our process and for making adoption YOUR option!
